Chapter 779 - Seven Hundred And Seventy-Nine: Healing

The third point of view :

"Didn\'t you say Akim is coming? Where is he already?" Elsa whined for the nth time already.

Ailee and Allen were at the airport waiting for their cousin to arrive. And they were with their annoying siblings. Just like the many others at the arrival gate, they couldn\'t wait for Akim to arrive.

Elsa was seated on top of Allen\'s shoulder while Diego was on Allen\'s, both kids waving cardboard in the air with Akim\'s name on it. Ella chooses to be on her own, playing a coloring game on her phone.

"I hate this, why couldn\'t he just take a private jet?!" Allen was vexed especially when he turned to see a young lady smiling coyly at him.

"Ugh," He rolled his eyes, which was kind of a huge surprise to him. If it was the Allen of old, he would have winked at her and charmed her. Bam! Before the end of the day, she\'s in his bed.

However, Allen was currently obsessed with a certain lady who grabbed him by the ball and zeroed his morales days again. He was still seeking ways to have his vengeance.

Unfortunately, since Decorah\'s attack and Neon leaving, the old man, Niklaus, had him moved back to the house so he no longer shares a neighborhood with that witch, Eve.

However, Allen was not disappointed, the wedding was fast approaching and he was sure as hell, Ailee had invited her. That would be the time he would conquer her. Forget about dating Eve, he can\'t have that witch as a girlfriend. What if she murders him in his sleep?

"Oh, here he comes!" Ailee announced, causing everyone to look up immediately.

"Akim!!!" The triplets shouted with a high pitch that overlapped the voices of others causing everyone to turn to stare at them.

Allen was so embarrassed that he instantly covered his face with his palm, embarrassed. This would be the last time he would move with these kids.

"Hey, kids!" Akim didn\'t mind the embarrassment so he bent down as the triplet ran into his arms all at once, embracing them.

"We missed you, Akim!" Elsa, the more outspoken twin, spoke out.

"Me too," Diego agreed, pecking him on the cheeks.

"I drew this," Ella said, pulling out her tablet and showing Akim a drawing of him.

"Wow," Akim was short of words, his hand coming to cup his mouth, "I\'m so touched," He said.

The drawing wasn\'t perfect but it was quite good, no, very good. Not to mention the fact she drew it from her heart, he would treasure it.

"Thank you so much, Ella," Akim smiled down at her. Ella had a talent for art.

"Cousin,"

The children made way for Ailee to pass through and hug Akim who rose to his feet.

Ailee\'s grip on Akim was tight yet consoling as she said, "I heard about your loss. I\'m so sorry,"

"It\'s alright," Akim covered up his pain with a smile on his face. Tears stung his eyes once again but he forced them back. He can\'t break down, not at the airport, and likely not in front of the kids.

As soon as Ailee pulled away from the hug, Allen playfully punched HIM on the shoulder, "It\'s nice to have you home once more. Mom and dad can\'t wait to see you…." Allen leaned closer to whisper, "Then we hit the clubs," He winked at him.

Akim smiled in appreciation. This was the reason why he had left Lincolnshire, to get distracted. His kingdom reminded him so much of Anika and he can\'t go on like this. Anika\'s death was devastating to him, he had to move on. And what better therapy than the company of his cousins.

Although he lied to his parents that he needed to be at the wedding beforehand and spend time with his cousins, Akim knew he would not be returning to Lincolnshire anytime soon. Lincolnshire smelled and tasted too much like Anika.

He needed to breathe. For sure, he would not forget Anika but he had to move on. She would always have his heart. Now, what he needed was to heal.

"Let\'s go!!" Elsa and Diego held onto Akim\'s hands and began to lead him away, abandoning their siblings who were dumbfounded by their act.

Those ungrateful brats! Ailee and Allen wanted to teach them a lesson. However, their gaze fell on Ella who was by their side, at least they still got one loyal twin.

"Let\'s go, Ella," Ailee said to her, bringing out her hand so she could take it.

"Sure!" Ella replied enthusiastically, causing a smile to fill Ailee\'s face when she reached out to her. However, to her?surprise, the girl simply put her tablet in Ailee\'s hands and took off, shouting, "Wait for me, Akim!"

Before their very eyes, they watched as Akim bent and piggybacked her while the others took their hands respectively.

For a minute, Ailee didn\'t say a word as she was too shocked to react. What just happened? That was when she realized that Elsa did not follow Akim in the first place because she was busy coloring. In the end, none of the triplets wanted them.

The sound of Allen\'s laughter brought Ailee back to the present and she realized that her brother was indeed laughing at her.

"Asshole," Ailee said, flipped her hair, and took her leave. Since she recovered from the bullet wound, Allen had gone back to being the asshole he was although there were some notable changes in his character.

Lately, she hasn\'t caught him sneaking any girl into his room nor does he make out in the car anymore because he\'s the one driving since Neon left…

The thought of Neon snatched away every smile on Ailee\'s face and Allen upon noticing that, came closer and placed his hand on her shoulder.

"What are you doing?" Ailee glared at him.

"Giving you a rare chance to be intimate with your handsome brother.. Come, let\'s go home," Allen intentionally pulled her along, distracting the sad thoughts in her head.
